Pens vs. Islanders
The Penguins a team that almost had the Stanley Cup are heading to Long Island this weekend. I am from Pittsburgh and I know that for whatever reason when the Islanders come to Pittsburgh, it's always an awaited team. I have recently moved to LI and the word on the street is that when the Pens come to town it isn't as big of deal here. Do the Islander's not sell out ingeneral like the Pens do? Do their fans not get as excited when an opponent comes to town? I would think that team & fans that has a home game would be rowdy and ready to cheer. I guess I will find out Saturday if what I have heard on the street about LI's team is true.

The Isles have been at the bottom of the league as far as attendance goes for the last decade. Their fans simply don't care and it's the main reason they should be moved.
No passion whatsoever from the fans or. Fair-weather fans at best.
That's funny that you said they have no fans because I was refused a seat at the game with my student ID because I was in Penguins attire. I would have to say that there were even numerous people wearing Rangers jerseys, that were cheering for the pens along with hundreds of penguin fans. Go Pens!
